Jan Juc Surfcoast Retreat. Sleeps 14. Pet friendly. Ocean views. Elevated deck

Welcome to our inviting & spacious, dog-friendly Jan Juc home. Lightning fast Internet/Wi-Fi will keep everyone connected whether for work or play. Relax and unwind in this recently renovated seaside retreat, complete with ocean views from the large elevated back deck. Designed with families and entertaining in mind the home offers two kitchens and six bedrooms in total which is ideal for hosting larger groups of up to 14
(perfect for two or three families sharing)

NO SCHOOLIES OR PARTIES

The space
Our fully fenced beach pad is located on a quiet and safe street (no through road) in the beautiful sought after Jan Juc. It’s the perfect place to get away from it all and unwind, with the patrolled Jan Juc surf beach, cliff-top walking tracks and Jan Juc Village only a short walk or drive with free parking.

Lightning fast Telstra 5G Internet connection ensures the family can be connected to the net for both work and play.

And if it’s hustle and bustle you crave then Torquay’s restaurants, pubs/breweries, cafes, famous surf shops or big chain supermarkets are just a few minutes away - we feel it’s the best of both worlds.

If golf is your thing you have access to the nearby beautiful RACV Resort or Torquay Sands, with 13th Beach only 20mins away also.

The Great Ocean Road is 200m from the front door, your decision is how much or how little do you want to do today?

Guest access
Guests have complete access to the fully fenced property which is ideal for your pet.

The hot outdoor shower is perfect for rinsing off the sand and salt and to wash your “wetty”, before relaxing on the elevated deck with a cold drink.

You’ll never run out of gas with the large built-in BBQ, and on a cooler night the fire pit offers a great place to sit around and listen to a few tunes.

Other things to note
Our cleaning cost covers cleaning and all associated linen for your stay. Upon arrival be assured of a clean and beautifully presented home ready for your enjoyment.

Family Break
There were 13 of us. Grandparents, plus 3 families including 2 teenage young ladies and 3 children 6 - 8. The house had 6 double bedrooms, 4 toilets, 2 kitchens, a very large family area and a games room. It was just as described. And Torquay and Jan Juc were great.

Jan Juc Surf Coast Retreat
This property was very deceptive from the front as it did not appear large enough to accommodate 11 people and 2 dogs! However when we walked inside there was bedroom after bedroom, 2 kitchens, 2 washing machines, 3 bathrooms, a large indoor living area and a fabulous space outside as well. It was very clean and comfortable and within close walking distance to a playground and park to play cricket. The safe Torquay beach with shade on the sand was a short drive away. It was a fabulous weekend and I can recommend this place to large groups. Beth

Great family holiday
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The home was in a quiet location which allowed for a relaxing and enjoyable break. The location was within walking distance to parks, shops and beach. There was a mixture of ages (three generations) and the house accommodated us so well. The grandchildren loved the games and backyard. The outdoor shower with hot water was an added bonus. Brett was very easy to contact with and returned messages within a short time. In short a beautiful home and location

Great place for large group
Had a wonderful time at the JJSC retreat. The house was spacious and as described. Ideal for a large group of friends or family. There is a downstairs area which has its own kitchen which was ideal for food prepping a large meal. The upstairs area had the open plan kitchen/lounge amd dining room with outdoor eating area and bbq, all brilliant to hang out around. Beds were comfy and the neighbourhood quiet. Would definitely stay here again.

Èverything about the property was perfect for our stay. There were 13 of us and we had plenty of room. The pool table was very popular with the younger ones. Couldn't have wished for a better place to stay for a large group.

Spacious Home
We had a family get away with 8 adults, 3 children under the age of 5 and a dog. There was plenty of room for all of us. The garage has been converted into a billard room and it got a lot of use. Downstairs there is a self contained unit which is lovely and a good place to go to if you need some me time. The house is only a very short drive to Torquay for retail therapy, the beach, food shopping and eatries. If you want to eat closer to the house there is the Jan Juc Village shops that has a coffee shop and a pub. It's a 2 minute drive or you could walk it and enjoy the fresh air, peaceful surrounds and look at some of lovely homes in the area. There is the peaceful JanJuc beach where my younger granddaughter had a great time. If you don't want to take the kids to beach there is a small park at the end of the street. As I headed towards the Jan Juc Village shops, I noticed there were a few little parks and a bigger park just before the Jan Juc caravan park. Definitely recommend this house for a large gathering. You'll find something to do even on a rainy day.
